The outbreak of an insurrectionary movement in Bolivia was reported t-day in dispatches to the newspaper La Naeion from La Quiaca, Argentine railroad station on the Bolivian frontier. The movement was under the leadership of Roberto llinojosa, formerly of the Bolivian diplomatic service and now a Bolivian radical leader.

He has a following among communist circles. With a party of Bolivian and Argentine followers Hinojosa was said to have captured the Bolivian town of Villazon, just over the Bolivian frontier from La Quiaca. Early this morning they captured the police station, looted the railway station, and seized funds at the customs house and -post and telegraph offices.

She was repeatedly applauded by the residents of the Tennessee Valley who gathered to hear her.

"The youth of the nation has ideals and vision," Mrs. Owen said, "and the democratic party offers an opportunity to put these ideals and visions into our government. The principles of the pnrty are principles that appeal to youth. 'The things youth thinks today will be the things they will be voting for a few years from now.

Mr. Schryber said that because the Mason-Dixon line had been in operation for more than six months the merged companies would be in a position to accept an air mail contract from the government, adding that officials had been assured a contract if the merger is completed.

Wallace, former clerk in Crawford's office, who filed charges against his recent re-nomiuation after being summarily dismissed, is scheduled to arrive in AVashington tomorrow for the purpose of testifying bc-for the sub-committee, but members-of the committee were unable to say whether he will be heard. Already the sub-committee, beaded by Senator Hebert, republican, of Rhode Island, has gone into the lengthy affidavit forwarded to Washington by Wallace and has satisfied itself that most of the charges, some of which date back to four years ago, have been investigated by the department of justice, which absolved Mr. Crawford before his reappointment was recommended to the president. The two other members of the subcommittee are Senator Steiwer, republican, Oregon, and Senator Stephens, democrat, of. Mississippi.

The Wallace charges are regarded as having fallen down when affidavits were presented by Crawford in his own behalf by the very witnesses that Wallace asked to hare summoned to support his complains. Following his testimony before the committee yesterday, during which he made a sweeping denial of all allegations, the northern district marshal today filed with the committee additional affidavits repudiating the charge that two gallons of a quantity of liquor seized in a raid by deputy marshals had been diverted to Crawford's personal use. The affidavits set forth that the two gallons in question had been brought in as evidence and later destroyed in the presence of witnesses. In testifying before the committee Monday, Crawford admitted that a scene took place in his office when Mrs. Janet Johnson, an employe, sent word to Mrs.

Wallace to come to the office, and accused Mrs. Wallace, after she arrived, of making damaging character remarks about her and announced that she intended to have the matter out with her in the pres WILEY L.
